Hundred Times Income Multiplier System

After Benjamin left, Celine came from the upper floor of the villa. She had noticed when Benjamin left through the window that was in her room.

When Benjamin came, she had decided to give them a little space so that they could discuss whatever it was they wanted. And now that Benjamin had left, It was just finally time for her to spend a precious time with Jack.

"How's the training going?" Jack asked when he saw her.

"It is going good. But I'm not as you, it seems that I cannot help them to improve easily as you do. Perhaps I do need help from Denali." Celine said with a dejected voice.

Celine had already mastered several basics when it came to the fighting skills. With her determination as well as her genius abilities when it came to fighting, Jack didn't need to take a lot of time to enable her to grasp the basics of fighting.

Although he was referring to them as basics, that was only due to the standard that he currently had. As a professional combatant, Jack thought that whatever those people that were in the ultimate championship in Venture City showed, was nothing as compared to the basics.

In fact, although those people always called themselves as professionals, to Jack, they were rookies who had yet to master the basics of fighting. That meant that, even if the strength of both sides were equal, Jack would have surely dominated them with the skills that he possessed.

Due to the fact that Jack wasn't going easy on Celine during the training or during their sparring moments, Celine was able to improve faster than he had expected.

By now, she had mastered the basics of fighting and she was heading into the intermediate level. Even though she was so far from being a master in fighting, there were not many people who could actually match her in terms of combat abilities in the blue planet.

After the training schedule ended the previous week, Celine had decided that it was finally time for her to start training her mother and Faith.

But in the end of it all, she had found that it was difficult for the two of them to improve. Whatever she had taken only a few days to master, the other two would need almost 2 weeks.

Not thinking that Faith and her mother were subpar, she had ended up blaming herself that she was not good at instructing. This was the reason as to why her mood was so low lately.

"You are a genius my dear." Jack chuckled. The somberness that was present on his face during the time that he was facing Benjamin was already gone.

"You should know that not everyone possesses the capabilities that you do. Not only are you completely determined to learn about fighting, you are also a genius who can easily get whatever you are taught within no time." Jack continued.

Celine went ahead and sat next to him. She looked at him before she pouted. "Bah, are you claiming that my mother and Faith are idiots?"

"That's not what I meant. What I am trying to imply is that, you are so ingenious as compared to them. Additionally, they are not following the same training schedule as the one that I had arranged for you. Without practical experience, there's no way that their improvement can catch up to you." Jack replied.

The two then went on to chat a little before Celine left. She still had a lot of responsibilities to handle considering that now she had another company for her to manage other than the one that she was helping her mother with.

After Celine left, Jack decided that it was finally time for him to take action on those that were supposed to pay a debt. He had already given them a few days ahead of the one month period that he had given them. This was just enough mercy that he had shown, enough time for them to change their mind and do whatever he had asked them to do.

…

As Jack began making his moves, a group of youths were currently inside a bar in a private room. They had solemn expressions on their faces as they looked at each other silently.

After a moment of silence, one of them decided to speak. "Guys, do you think that all of this happened because of Jack?"

The guy with the tallest build -the one who had previously volunteered to beat up Jack back in venture City- replied, "I have a hunch that all of this is caused by that guy."

As he spoke, there was a hint of fear in his eyes as he remembered what had occurred during that night. That was actually the night that he really regretted whatever had happened.

Had they known that Jack was actually that formidable, they would have surely resisted the advances that Collins was making on them. Had they reported this to Jack, perhaps they could have gotten on his good side.

But now, it was too late for them. During that night, Denali had broken their hands. Till this day, they had yet to be fully healed.

They had also gotten the information that Collins had suffered a lot. Not only him, But his entire family had been taken to prison with all their assets being sold or being taken by the government or by other institutions due to the debts that they were in.

Collins's family was bigger than theirs. But all the same, it had fallen. And all of this, they believed that it was in the hands of Jack, the person whom they had offended for Collins.

"He gave us a one month timeline for us to submit at least half of the assets that are in our parents' possession. But all of this is just too difficult." One of them sighed.

The others also nodded their heads. To say the truth, they had never expected that the action that they had taken during that time will come back to haunt them.

Before Jack made his moves on them, they had only thought that they were only helping Collins and at the end of it all, they were going to benefit from the connections that they were going to forge with Collins.

But all of this came back and bit them on the very night of the action that they were taking. And it had followed them all the way during the past month.

They had already informed their parents during the time that they had been asked how they had gotten their hands broken. Of course, their parents were furious about what they heard.

They were not only furious that their children had their arms broken, but the perpetrator was also asking for compensation from them. What is more outrageous was the fact that, the person was requesting for half of their total assets.

Had it not been for the fact that their families were actually at a lower level as compared to the Gravy family, they were sure that their parents would have surely made moves on them.

Just the previous day, their parents had become depressed. This was due to the fact that the businesses that were under them had incurred several losses.

Even some of the deals that had already gone through had been somehow reversed. Some of their partners had already canceled the partnership, while some of those who were supposed to honor their contracts had even gone to the extent of willing to pay the fine, just to cancel the contracts that they had signed with them.

At first, each and every one of them thought that it was only their family that was facing such a catastrophe. But when they met, they came to find that only those that had had a hand in kidnapping Celine were the ones whose families was suffering.

This was the exact reason as to why they had congregated here today, to search for a solution. They knew that this was simply the beginning of what was to come.

Jack had previously contacted them to inform them that since their timeline had already gone by, they should be ready for the repercussions.

At first, they didn't take him too seriously. At the end of it all, they didn't know what Jack's background actually was. But upon seeing what had occurred the previous day only, they knew that they had messed with the wrong person.

"Ahem, Do you think we can talk to Jack so that he can let our families go? We can at least speak to our parents so that they can give away 50% of the total assets, so that we can save the other 50% rather than losing it all." One of the youth spoke.

"Are you sure that you received the same message from Jack as the one that I received?" The burly guy looked at him as he questioned with doubt clear in his eyes.

"Of course I did. He clearly stated that, since the one month period that he had given us went by without us doing the parts that we were supposed to, he was going to make sure that we lost everything." The guy retorted.

"Then how the f*ck are you trying to say that we can bargain with him? It is not like he didn't give us a warning." The burly guy rolled his eyes at he spoke.

"He gave us a warning, and we took it seriously. It is just that the assets that are under our family are not under our control, but under our parents. Without their consent, what can we do?" One of them complained.

"It doesn't matter what you're going to say, he has already began making moves. Maybe by the end of this week we'll have to sleep in the streets." Another said.

"What streets? If our families incurred several debts, do you think that the debt collectors will actually let us sleep peacefully in the streets?" One of them spoke again.

They had all seen the things that Collins and his family had undergone. Not only did all the wealth that they had accumulated over a long period of time disappear into nothing, they had also gotten themselves into several debts.

With the failure of their businesses, they had broken several terms in the contracts that they had signed before. Required to pay the fines, they were left with nothing at the end of it all.

"I guess it is all over for us. I really regret it, I shouldn't have fallen into the temptation that Collins had given us." One of the youths said melancholically.
